Hi Walter, unfortunately, one week after filing the removal request and your mail indicating that things may start to move for aegis, we cannot detect any improvement at the Debian end. Usually, we would remove packages at this point, but I guess a grace period of one more week is in order. Note, though, that the usual timeframe to adress bugs deemed "release-critical" is two weeks and the Christian did not respond to #461034 for two months, even after this removal request had been filed. In order to release aegis with lenny and keep it in the archive, you would have to ensure that it has a responsive maintainer. Both Debian and the people developing aegis probably would not want Debian users to be exposed to a version that has severe bugs. That said, even if we do remove aegis from Debian for now (it already has been removed from lenny for the time being and would not be released with Debian 5.0 if it remains unfixed), that would not hinder reinclusion if someone steps up to maintian it again.
